Allows to view Diff UI with ClearCase scm on diff compose with @@/main/branch/id tags

I have some problems with clearcase when trying to view the diff on the UI. It couldn't find the files since the filename was composed with filename.xxx@@/main/branch/id. So managed to get the file with a specific branch outside clearcase, copy to a tmp file and then use that file to create the diff. This will allow to add filenames + branches tags on the post-review and see them on the Diff UI.

I'm new to python so it might be some issues on the patch and code standards.

I only saw a problem and that is the httpd server user needs to have permission on the clearcase otherwise you will get cleartool: Error: Operation "get cleartext" failed: Permission denied. when getting the file.

Basically i had a branch named xpto and a made a diff between filename.cpp@@/main/LATEST;filename.cpp@@main/xpto/LATEST and the result diff was uploaded to the reviewboard but i couldnt see the file in the DIFF UI. 

Hope it helps more users using clearcase.
I have tested with 1.6.9 on a dynamic view on clearcase.

This addition doesn't add anything--if extended_path is an empty string, of course it won't have @@ in it.

Use # comments instead of triple-quoted strings for everything except docstrings, please.

Indent these by 4 spaces.

No need for the parentheses here

  1. Hi Nelson. Jan is here. I'm creator of current ClearCase implementation.
    Your problem does not looks like ReviewBoard issue - more your configspec is wrong.
    After fixing the configspec in your view everything should back to normal.
    We can try to investigate this on group.
